Santa's Claus Parade

My kids look so forward to the Santa Claus Parade.

They love the lights.

They love the floats.

They LOVE the fire trucks and Police cars.

they, however, do not like the cold.

it was a great night, at the end of November.

it was cold.

the parade was a lot of fun.

but by i put my camera away quite quickly.

my hands were cold.

my kids were cold.

no picture of Santa..or any of the floats...just the first fire engine.

so excited

We Will Remember

Yesterday was Remembrance Day.

the hubby and i brought the kids to the ceremony at the Legion.

Then we went downtown for the parade.

Here they come.

The government appointed day has come and gone.

may we remember, every day, the sacrifice given.

Thank You

to all the men and women who have sacrificed their lives for the freedom we have here in Canada.

(i'm a dual citizen, so i'm thankful for the freedoms here and in the States.)
